The reason was ...

After upgrading SA you have to manually delete the files bayes_* and =
built
up new databases with collected spam

/usr/bin/sa-learn --spam --mbox --showdots newspam

and/or with collected ham

/usr/bin/sa-learn --ham --mbox --showdots goodstuff

A chmod 600 on all the files foes the rest.


Maybe it is possible to distribute a collection of spam with this module =
to
automate this process if these errors come up, in that way someone can
forcivly built up a new database like this

cd ~/.spamassassin
chown $user.$group ~/.spamassassin/*
rm -f bayes_*
/usr/bin/sa-learn --spam --mbox $badstuff
chmod 600 ~/.spamassassin/*


bis dahin - kind regards
